    Later Napoleon said that agreeing the truce that followed this epic meeting was his greatest mistake [ref: Wolfram Siemann's brilliant biography of Metternich (2019)]. The 'interval' that Metternich negotiated with supreme diplomacy gave time for a coalition (sixth and last) of European powers that Napoleon failed to pick off one by one leading to his defeat at Leipzig. Metternich had the measure of Bonaparte as no other statesman, and was his political nemesis, though of course the heavy lifting cost the lives of thousands more. This is a link to a fine documentary drama with really good historical analysis about that famous Dresden meeting th-cam.com/video/mXBD0YLLY94/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xKa8i22Fmz8c6jIm

    0:12 recruiting teens for combat duty ages 15-17 was the norm in that age in all militaries. For example many of the Royal Marines at Trafalgar were below 18. What was unusual was recruiting primarily just teens. Before only about 10% of new enlistments in the french forces were below 18. But by this point of the war France had mostly run out of adult aged men and was forced to primarily recruit teens including many aged 16-17.

    This scene actually took place not in Paris but in Dresden Germany, in mid summer 1813, when Napoleon agreed to a truce with the Russians and Prussians after the battles of Lutzen and Bautzen, while Austria was still neutral. Metternich asked Napoleon to give up Ilyria, and agree to the repartition of both Poland and the confederation of the Rhine, both outrageous proposals that rendered any hard won treaties and sacrifices futile ( plus a marriage that did not guarantee peace) as well as exposing the austrian untrustworthiness. Metternich told him then that Austria would join the 6th coalition against him which it did, and the battle of Dresden followed. In that meeting Napoleon dismissed Metternich’s proposals out of hand and famously threw his hat to the floor, an act that was wrongly added in this movie in a previous meeting between Napoleon and the tsar.

      However, Napoleon was right that Britain was using Prussia, Russia, and Austria to fight Napoleon. While Napoleon was a brilliant commander and administrator, he did not understand the complexities of diplomacy since he is more a military man which failed to learn the lessons of why he’s fighting too many wars.

    Metternich would never have spoken to Napoleon in such a rude, undiplomatic manner, nor turned his back on him and walked out without being invited to do so; most often it is up to the higher ranking person to end the meeting and leave the room first. He would not have used the term "conditions" as Austria was not yet in a position to impose any - only to offer proposals. This scene is pure woke egalitarianism.

      Bankers don't really play with Emperors as puppets. Emperors are more like dice. The wise banker will win no matter who wins the battle. The banker does not stand behind any particular Emperor. He does not depend on them.
